  1. Is becoming an ANP a waste of time?

    SydneyJo1 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I know that there tend to be more FNP jobs out there, but is it a total waste to pursue an ANP? It seems like ANP programs may be slightly easier to get into than FNP because everyone wants the FNP,...

  2. Who attends (or attended )SLU's online NP program?

    SydneyJo1 replied to SydneyJo1's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Was your Masters program online? Overall, did you feel like the education you received was worth the price tag, which as you mentioned is a HIGH one? I am married with two young kids, and I am 36 so...

  3. I'm freaking out here.. I could fail clinical and i dont know why!

    SydneyJo1 replied to ashleyisawesome's topic in General Students

    I agree, you need to fight this and fight it HARD! Good luck to you!! I hope they turn this around for

  4. Are there many WHNP jobs out there?

    SydneyJo1 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I'm just curious--if you are interested in Women's Health, are there many jobs out there for WHNPs, or are you better off doing the FNP or

  5. Are there many WHNP jobs out there?

    SydneyJo1 replied to SydneyJo1's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Excellent points. Thank you so much for the advice and for your

  6. Are there many WHNP jobs out there?

    SydneyJo1 replied to SydneyJo1's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Are you noticing many jobs in women's health in your area then? I know it varies from place to place, and I live in an urban area with many hospitals and clinics, so maybe that will increase my odds?...

  7. I'm freaking out here.. I could fail clinical and i dont know why!

    SydneyJo1 replied to ashleyisawesome's topic in General Students

    I agree, you need to report it. If you wait to see if she fails you and she DOES, then it looks like sour grapes on your part and hurts your credibility, even if others vouch for you. She is wrong...

  8. Are there many WHNP jobs out there?

    SydneyJo1 replied to SydneyJo1's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Thank you! I am kind of torn. I am interested in women's health and that is where my passion lies, but I am also afraid of working so hard to complete an NP program and then ending up not being able...

  9. I advise you guys NOT to....

    SydneyJo1 replied to CharlotteDarcy's topic in General Students

    Any chance you could change your major to something that would be appropriate to the types of classes you have taken for your nursing major, such as biology? Or that you can self design a major using...

  10. Pediatric Endocrinology NP

    SydneyJo1 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    This is an area that I am very interested in, and I'm wondering if there is much demand for NPs with this specialty. I just want to make sure that there are jobs out there if I decide to go this...

  11. Student Uniform - My Gosh!

    SydneyJo1 replied to Meg_student's topic in General Students

    What in the world are they thinking? Are they going to make you wear one of those capes too?

  12. why do you care if a student misses class?

    SydneyJo1 replied to picurn10's topic in General Students

    Other students missing class doesn't bother or concern me UNLESS you feel the need to feed me and everyone else within earshot a line of bull about why you are gone every other day. There is a girl...

  13. What to specialize in for DNP?

    SydneyJo1 posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I want to be an NP working in obstetrics and women's health (maybe infertility in some way). The schools here in Milwaukee do not have DNP programs that specialize in these areas. The school I am...

  14. What to specialize in for DNP?

    SydneyJo1 replied to SydneyJo1's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Actually, that is exactly why I was asking the question. I don't want to waste my time, energy and money on a degree that isn't going to prepare me to do what I want to do. It's tough when the local...

  15. U of U's DNP ... "I got in!"

    SydneyJo1 replied to RN2bAPRN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    That is wonderful news! You should be very proud of yourself.

  16. NS with young children at home?

    SydneyJo1 replied to sjc77's topic in General Students

    I have two kids ( 6 and almost 4), and my mom watches the little one while I'm at school. The 6 year old is in kindergarten all day, so she's not as much of an issue, but my mom picks her up from...

  17. Cardinal Stritch ADN program & tuition?

    SydneyJo1 replied to blueelle's topic in General Nursing

    I got a St. Bonaventure Scholarship (that one based on GPA, I think) and I also got the Cardinal Stritch grant. I didn't qualify for many additional grants like the Pell. The financial aid office...

  18. If almost done with a MSN in 2015, grandfathered in?

    SydneyJo1 replied to SydneyJo1's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    That is what I'm noticing, and part of what makes it confusing. All the schools near me are phasing out the MSN programs for DNP programs, which kind of gives the impression that it is a given that...

  19. Cardinal Stritch ADN program & tuition?

    SydneyJo1 replied to blueelle's topic in General Nursing

    I am in the first semester now, and it is fantastic so far! I love it. Great professors, very hands on, small classes, etc. It is expensive, but (at least in my experience) they give great...

  20. If almost done with a MSN in 2015, grandfathered in?

    SydneyJo1 replied to SydneyJo1's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Seriously! This whole thing is extremely confusing to me. I am trying to tenatively plan out a direction for the next several years, and all this DNP vs MSN and 2015 business is throwing me for a...

  21. Things you would love to say to your fellow nursing students!

    SydneyJo1 replied to Faeriewand's topic in General Students

    I want to know, too!! Do tell!! Please keep your racist, smack-talking behind away from me and stop talking to me. Your mere presence embarrasses me and I don't want anyone to think that your...

  22. The Frontier School Of Midwifery and Family Nursing

    SydneyJo1 replied to caitiecait's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    So, about the whole pelvic exam thing. Were there any male FNP or Midwifery students in the group? If so, how was that
